Hi qwerty99,
welcome to the forum!
Should be Cepaea, probably Cepaea nemoralis. Where are the snails from? (that's always helpful to know..... .)
Kind regards: wolf

Nicely colored C. nemoralis. I've seen some info stating that the cepaea introduced into the North American continent have formed certain color groups which is interesting. In the USA the cepaea in Missouri all have a similar color to yours, while the ones in Michigan are yellow and orange with one or no stripes.

Ahh, there are cepaea in Missouri?! Any idea as to where? I have been looking to find some for a while, and I am currently in Missouri, but only for a few more days.
